St Ninian's Year 9 asked to stay at home tomorrow

All other year groups can attend as normal

St Ninian's High School has told all Year 9 students to stay at home tomorrow, as it's experiencing extremely high levels of staff absence again.

No other year groups are affected.

In a statement, the school says the decision has not been taken lightly and has tried to do everything to avoid this scenario, but with the volume of teaching and support staff currently absent there was no alternative.

While at home, students are requested to continue to access their usual lessons via their Google Classrooms.

On Friday, they can return to school as normal.
